## Description

The single, most important skill in playing guitar is KNOWING THE FRETBOARD. Yet, many people play for years and never even know what notes they&#39;re playing!<br><br>There are hundreds of apps, videos, books, etc. on learning the fretboard. Virtually NONE of them work.<br><br>Why don&#39;t they work? Because they teach it BACKWARDS. They show a spot on the fretboard and ask, &quot;what note is this?&quot; That looks logical, but it doesn&#39;t work because... that&#39;s NOT how you play the guitar!!<br><br>Think about it: when you play, you don&#39;t look at the fretboard and think &quot;uh, what note is that?&quot; Instead, the note starts in your head: &quot;I need a C#...&quot; and THEN you find it, and THEN you play it, note after note.<br><br>And that&#39;s how this unique app teaches you the fretboard: by training the way guitarists actually PLAY. Stop trying to learn the fretboard BACKWARDS!
